Full Moon in Cancer: Dreaming of You

We must retell this story and with urgency, teach the next generation the words of the spell. ∞ Peter Grey

Out of the numbness of fear and the pain of the wound will flower recognition and understanding of the deepest mystery.
She is speaking directly to you at all times. ∞ Peter Grey

The inner world separated from the outer world is a place of demons, the outer world separated from the inner world is a place of meaningless objects and machines. ∞ Peter Grey

There is no thrill of mortal danger to surpass that of a lone man trying to create something that never existed before. ∞ Irving Stone

That last little bit is a blatant lie.

There is no thrill of mortal danger to surpass that of a lone human being attempting to break free of self just enough to connect, to collaborate, to co-create, all the while maintaining a sense of self sufficient to sustain the dual experience of interdependence and the independence that underpins it.

Anyone can be okay without the challenge of a profound love that burns you to the core. Anyone can feel good in the absence of the provocation that insists you face every demon you, just yesterday, sought to banish, mistaking them as something other than your own malformed sadnesses persistently asking to be heard.

Not everyone can open her ears.

Not just anyone can persist in grasping the unity between the inner and outer world and all the personal responsibility (response ability) it implies.

Many of us would prefer to continue on in a game of endless sovereignty that seeks to place self-love upon the throne and mollify the reality that human beings were made to connect and to create together. But reality persists despite our efforts to overthrow its influence with fantasies of our singular supremacy.

The antidote?

Drop your guard honey. It is the only way.

My proof? Full Moon in Cancer, Jupiter conjunct Mercury in the sign of Sagittarius.

This is not the time to fortify your castle walls. They are already made of thick concrete and steel rebar. They are already reinforced by iron. What more do you need in order to ensure no one ever truly touches your heart?

NO!

This, dearest, is the moment to strap your soul to that one last arrow in your quiver and shoot for the Moon.

What you bring back to the ground from your cosmic adventure is all that matters. With your Soul in Capricorn sextile the harvest, this is your chance to decide what to sow into the next reaping season, indeed, what to build from the foundation you lay today. But you can't achieve carnal knowledge of something different if you don't set your sights a little higher than ground zero in the endless karmic rounds of the same old same old.

In other words, change. You must change. NOW!

As you consider my proclamation, ask yourself this simple question:

Is there really anything left to lose when you have already lost everything that matters?

She is the Goddess, but we cannot repeat the answer to the koan, we must survive the experience to honestly pronounce the words. See your name chiseled off your wife's headstone, bury your son, your children, your lovers, be burnt to a cinder. Deal with that magician, be present for that, live through that. Some of you will have been here, had your own torments - she must like you. ∞ Peter Grey

Don't tell me the moon is shining; show me the glint of light on broken glass.
∞ Anton Chekhov

Do you dare risk a direct experience of the Moon? Perhaps I should reveal its character first!

In Shamanic Egyptian Astrology, the Moon is masculine and plays dual roles that differ very much from the common Western perception of the Moon symbolically speaking.

Khonsu is a god of the Moon associated with healing and right timing. The ancient Egyptians believed he had the ability to expel the demons that cause illness and disease…Khonsu as the Moon opens our heart so we can feel the compassion and love that connects us to the Divine. He helps us to commune with–to consume–the divine energy of love that ultimately heals all hurts…As the god of right timing, it is he who teaches us how to hold boundaries between that which it is healthy to receive and that which will cause us harm…He teaches us how not to give ourselves away in a fashion that drains us of our life force energy. As such, he is the god who heals codependency. ∞ Linda Star Wolf and Ruby Falconer

He makes the sap rise in the budding plants of spring and helps fertilization with the energies of the new moon; in this aspect he is described as the fiery bull. As the light-bearer he makes ‘women fruitful, and makes the human germ to grow in his mother’s womb.’

He possesses absolute power over all hostile spirts in the earth, air, and sea. As a great healer, he banishes disease and madness…

∞ Athon Veggi and Alison Davidson

In short, he pushes us to uphold boundaries and he cleanses that which is not in accord with our health and wellness. But he also calls potential to fruition.

And where is he sitting right now in the fullness of his shining? In the heart of our intimate partnerships.

In the sign of Cancer, we find Nut and Geb, the sky goddess and the earth, the mother and father of all that is. In their union we find the harmony of opposites joined in beautiful loving connection. In their separation, we discover loyalty and hunger for one another; a union that is no less potent because it cannot be re-consummated every moment.

In their love we find the embrace of papa and mama, separated by the air, but united in the project of holding their progeny; joined in shared purpose and mutual affection. Which perhaps means they are not truly separate at all, but custodians of a love that goes beyond sentiment and into purpose; into the work of holding the fullness of what their union created and is creating. Nonetheless, it is a fruitful, fulfilled union that serves to bring things about and to sustain them once they are born.

If only we could live up to their example!

Cancer is ruled by the Moon. This is the place where the exorcist holds the most sway and where the evocation of potential is situated most naturally.

THERE MUST BE A REASON FOR THAT. GIVE IT SOME THOUGHT!

Perhaps on our own, all we do is shun our destiny, THE destiny that insists we must do this together or forgo its greatest fruits.

Perhaps all alone, we never have to face our demons, but rather can keep silent company with their worst excesses failing to actually come to the point of cleansing challenge.

Could this be why the crowning achievement of modern capitalistic oppression is the tyrannical, pathological, ecologically suicidal cult of the individual, the lone man facing down the world in service of himself and his needs alone?

That would certainly explain a lot!

Here we also have the Moon opposing (of course) the Sun in the sign of Capricorn or Khnum.

Khnum is one of the oldest gods of the ancient Egyptian pantheon, his origins stemming from predynastic times. Khnum is a creator god who creates the bodies of all living things…Khnum is the potter who shapes the bodies of all earthlings upon his wheel. In the symbolism of Shamanic Egyptian Astrology, Khnum continually creates new forms so that we might have the means to proceed with our earthly tasks after each process of transformation and change. As we move through each death/rebirth experience, it is Khnum who weaves new DNA into our ka body so that we can integrate and open to the demands of the change that is occurring–not only within us but upon our planet. It is Khnum who supports us as we open to that which next needs to be done here on earth…

…In traditional astrology, Khnum is associated with the earth sign Capricorn. Capricorn is the sign of the elder and the authority. Capricorn represents the laws and rules that give form to society…Capricorn represents not only the ever-changing structure of society but also, in its shadow form, the fearful resistance to change that can be a mark of the patriarchy. ∞ Linda Star Wolf and Ruby Falconer

The Sun in this sign suggests we are being re-worked a little or a lot! Or that we can be if we choose it.

In Shamanic Egyptian Astrology, the Sun has a dual meaning.

The great god Amun-Ra is the creator who shines forth his illuminating life giving force upon the Earth and all its creatures. He is the power of our illuminated soul shining through our personality. He represents all we are in our present manifestation and all we have not yet become…Amun was known as the Hidden One…Ra was of perhaps even greater importance, worshipped as the god of the Sun and also as a creator…In their fusion, Amun-Ra is a dual god, representing both solar power at its zenith during the day and the absence of the Sun during the night. In Shamanic Egyptian Astrology, Ra is the Sun as he shows himself to us; Amun is the Sun at night, when we cannot see him.
∞ Linda Star Wolf and Ruby Falconer

In traditional Western astrology, the Sun is our essence, our basic personality as expressed through the ego. It presents us with a picture of what happens to our light when it is taken over by the struggle to survive.

Within our Sun sign, we find both our greatest potential as well as our most severe pitfalls. If we hang on to our need for survival as expressed by our ego, we slip more and more into acting out the shadow side of our Sun sign. In this regard, the shadow only means that which is hidden from view by our inability to face it. Since the hidden realm also holds our greatest potential, the elements can express as potential bound up in pain.

Transits from other planets to our Sun, emanations as we call them…describe a period in our lives when we go through ego death. During these periods…our ego identity as it currently exists is slowly chipped away. New aspects of our ego, described by the shadow side of our personality–Amun, the Hidden On–come into being and are integrated into our psyche. These are times when we must journey through our own private underworld, re-emerge, and allow the solar life force of Amun-Ra to shine upon us and illuminate that which we are meant to be. The challenge is to let go of that which we have been and open to the life giving rays of source…the Sun as represented by Amun-Ra describes the attributes of our personality that we can most rely on to assist us in manifesting our true selves. ∞ Linda Star Wolf and Ruby Falconer

In case you haven't yet grokked the meaning of this whole thing, let me boil it down for you:

In this moment, our collective Ego is in the hands of the Potter and its condition is blatantly and clearly identified for us all in the nature and quality of what we have created together in small collective and large alike. And can I just say that it stinks to high heaven. Can you smell the stench of our collective wounding solidified in the nightmare unfolding before our eyes?

Even the self-identified white hats have begun to spin snark and cynicism that can truly only identify a lack of seriousness in changing anything at all. Fixating on what is, even to lambast its ridiculousness or its callous disregard for all that is human, can only amplify its impact.

What we really need is an influx of something new in the spiritual DNA of who we are and how we show up.

I am willing. Are you?

Khnum is at hand. He has your ego on the wheel. He is ready to redesign both your shining and your hidden realms. You will see his handiwork, if you give him the go-ahead, in the tectonic shifts he makes possible in your relationships. He will take you so far outside your comfort zone that you can't even remember your old coping strategies, much less who you were in the midst of their endless spidery web. But to unleash him is to render your Soul, first to the exorcism of the Moon's cleansing embrace and then to the reshaping that will feel like the gut rehab of all you have ever been.

Are you ready to lose your foolish identity in service of gaining everything you have ever dreamed of. You might nickname it LOVE regardless of what you have been calling it up until now.

Your Soul in the sign of Capricorn also sits upon the wheel. So this is no dry run in your grand adventure.

Well, and Saturn is conjunct your Sun (though just barely), also in the sign of Capricorn. No need to chronicle the mayhem of accountability Saturn in Capricorn has unleashed this last year. But consider that he will both resist and insist upon the changes if you accept the challenge.

In Shamanic Egyptian Astrology, Saturn is Sobek.

The planet Saturn has long been feared as the representative of our most difficult experiences. Saturn is the principle of constriction. To be born with Saturn prominent in your chart guarantees as sense of limitation in some area of your life. Likewise, transits of Saturn bring times of limitation, loss, and feelings of oppression…Saturn has long represented the patriarchal masculine–resistant, oppressive, even cruel…Change is dangerous and so he resists it. He is the constant opposition to the new–always questioning, resisting. He it the wise defender and protector, grounded in practical reality, and yet also can be oppressive and restricting, smothering new life with his fear of change. ∞ Linda Star Wolf and Ruby Falconer

Of course, when approaching Sobek, it pays to recall that constriction is actually the only way things can come into form metaphysically speaking. The great universe of infinite potential must be bound, fixed into form. So, Saturn is not only resistant to change, he is the only means by which it can take shape.

You might say that Saturn makes sure change manifests into physical form, but that he also puts the brakes on so that the shifts cannot happen too fast or in the wrong circumstances. In this case, he will resist the revolution of love. But, he will also insure that the rebirth happens. According to The Book of Doors, Sobek means “He Who Reunites” and “To Make Pregnant Again.”

So as you spin apart on the Potter's wheel, Saturn will both make sure you don't come apart too soon and help you in the coming back together again.

Nature is not malevolent, it is other. No one chooses to be Shaman, it is thrust upon us. It is the bloody head devouring our endlessly regenerating liver. It is the ring-moat of toothmarks on his cheek that marked him out for love. But poetry is getting back up off the canvas when the fight is already lost, when you are already dead. It is the need to fathom out how the disarticulated parts can fit together again, and what is missing. It is all the Goddess. Can you recognize her, when she will not respond to your Come not in that form? The shock of horror is duende, the wound, the critical act in the magickal path. ∞ Peter Grey

The South Node is also making its rounds on the Potter's wheel. In Egyptian mythology, the South Node is Apep.

Apep is “The Great Snake” or “The Great Enemy.” He is the most powerful adversary of Ra, the sun god. Ra meets him in the Duat (the Egyptian underworld) every night as the sun journeys through the darkness. Ra must defeat him as must the dead who seek resurrection.

Apep fights Ra with his weapons of cloud, mist, rain, and darkness, but the outcome is always the same for Ra, armed with the destroying heat of the sun and the spears of light, he burns and shrivels the great snake. When in the Duat, face to face with the archfiend himself, the deceased is encouraged by the gods to battle with him, and by overcoming him the spirit will rise victorious like the sun in the morning…In a magical sense, he represents the Fire snake and the period of spiritual horror that encloses the aspirant before the illumination of Ra penetrates the deepest levels of consciousness to bring the victory of enlightenment. ∞ Athon Veggi and Alison Davidson

His divinatory meaning is: Oppression; the surfacing of unconscious fears and memories that must be confronted.

Well this is quite a convention of inconvenient realities, is it not? The Sun and his enemy, the Soul and its undoing, redoing, reanimation, all in one dusty groove on the same spinning wheel.

And Black Moon Lilith too! The wounded feminine pleasure principle with all her shrieking rage and horror has most certainly been invited to the Potter's party?

There is much to let go of here, much to face, and many miracles are afoot. Can you feel the impending danger? The approach of all possibility?

Do you dare expect the unexpected? Fillet your anticipation? Open to the unknown edge of who you have been?

Who we have been together?

I'm in.

Take hold of us dear Potter. Make sure our sacred last shot, our one remaining arrow strikes the mark of the Moon, bearing our Soul to its exorcism, to the reckoning of our creative union. And when the madness is gone, remake us and the mirror of our relationships in the image of Ma'at, in the image of Divine Order fulfilled in us. Let us not succumb to the isfet of chaos, but give us the will and the skill to master it (minus our manipulative machinations and our vain attempts to avoid risk). Make us strong, give us the force to stand in the nascent new reality you are weaving into the fabric of who we are. In the moments when we want to run for the cover of our inadequacy, into the folds of our irrelevance, remind us that only we can truly bring through the hope and the revolution of change you are stitching into the the inner fibers of our being. We submit and in so doing, we claim our power, our essentiality, our resolve, and our right to a world made anew as a collective system designed to unleash our greatest potential, our Divine Destiny, our purpose. For this moment our feet were set upon the earth. Let us never forget! Let us LIVE this LOVE the yearning for which you placed in our hearts long before we dared be born. For this we will die to all we have fooled ourselves into believing is ironclad, real, immovable, and catastrophic. Make us great warriors in the command of LOVE.

Did that Sound Like the Call of Holy Desire You Have Waited to Hear? Book Answering Passion's Call Today!

During this 80-Minute session, we will:

Develop a clear vision for what you are being called to bring forth;

Get you wedded to it in a powerful decision making experience;

Uncover the obstacles and opportunities that are affecting your harvest; and

And speaking of arrows!

Jupiter is in Sagittarius. And Mercury is snugged up against it.

Grace has come home and will be expanding our capacity to aim and to realize our shot through most of 2019. In short, the arrow you are about to fling is benefiting from the expansive energy of its ruling planet and Thoth is riding shotgun.

In Shamanic Egyptian Astrology, Jupiter is Horus. When Set dismembered Osiris, his true wife, Isis, found all of his body parts (except his penis) and used her magic to extract his generative power. She became pregnant with the next generation Sun god, Horus. I think of Horus as very simply, the energy of success, grace, and expansion.

He carries the energy of the new generation–the new king, eager to seize the reigns of power and create new visions for the realm. He resists restraints and wants to charge eagerly forward–soaring through the skies, enacting change, and creating new visions…As a solar deity, Horus is a creature of light. He represents the force within that wishes to bring our creative aspect to fruition, to manifest our desires in reality…Horus expands whatever he comes in contact with. Horus in aspect to other planets in an astrological chart intensifies the expression of those planets. Horus in transit through an area of a chart expands the experience of that house or aspect. ∞ Linda Star Wolf & Ruby Falconer

As a solar deity, Horus is a creature of the light. He represents the force within that wishes to bring our creative aspect to fruition, to manifest our desires as reality. ∞ Linda Star Wolf and Ruby Falconer

Thoth as a ride or die on this trip is very challenging and also beneficial.

In Shamanic Egyptian Astrology, Mercury is Thoth.

The great god Thoth is the Sacred Scribe of Shamanic Egypt. He represents communication in its highest expression, that of illumination. In Shamanic Egyptian Astrology, he represents the process by which Spirit speaks through us and the words we say, the ideas we express, the memories we hold, the understanding we carry–are we inspired by our connection to the Divine?

[Thoth] was the god of magic, and his followers were considered to have access to the most secret of mysteries…Thoth describes how effectively we function as a channel to Spirit. ∞ Linda Star Wolf and Ruby Falconer

Thoth always carries a challenge for us:

Will our wounds and our unmet longings keep us from hearing and effectively channeling Spirit’s will and messages in our lives?

Honey, hello. From what is our arrow made?

Words! Be careful what you say. Be careful what you think. Challenge yourself to look more than once at the routine beliefs flashing across the sky of your mind. Consider how badly you want to confirm your worldview. Make a concerted effort to truly massacre your melodrama and release your repeat record. Skip, Skip, Skip.

NO MORE!

You absolutely must welcome and seek novelty even when things look exactly the same. Find any glitch in the Matrix and use the fuck out of it why don't ya.

Oh sweet Sekhmet, how it feels like we are repeating the same old cycles over and over again. Pleasure-Pain-Pleasure-Pain over and over again. We touch the border of having what we want and retreat into what we know. We look, but we do not see how to bring something new from the swirling eddies of this wild gyration between the past and the future.

Oh sweet Presence, bring us alive to the mystery of what is different. Transform our eyes so that we can harness these seemingly opposing forces. Help us to touch the sameness with new sensation in our hands. Help us to look upon these worn out grooves with innovative eyes such that we can discern new possibilities.

Break our hearts in this place of polarity over and over again until we assemble a new reality in which we are able to behold BOTH what has been and what will be, side by side, in the wild chaos of our becoming. Tantalize us with delight and promises of LOVE when we think we cannot go on.

In Shamanic Egyptian Astrology, Sagittarius is Sekhmet and she is “the agent of change, the force that arises from within us when it is time to make a decision, move out of our internal conflict, and act.”

She grabs our Sobek–our internal and often fearful resistance to change–and our Horus–that part of us that longs for the next right thing–and gives them both a good shake. ‘Change is inevitable,’ she tells us–‘Now go figure out how it is to happen.’ She forces our internal Sobek and Horus to cooperate so that we can open up willingly to the next right step and move ourselves forward, grounded in the wisdom of our experience.

Skehmet is one of the oldest lioness goddesses in the Egyptian pantheon. She is most often portrayed as a woman with the head of a lioness. Her name means, ‘powerful,’ ‘mighty,’ or ‘female powerful one.’ Her breath was said to cause the desert winds; flames burned from her mouth…

…Sekhmet is associated with the sign of Sagittarius. Sagittarius is a fire sign, and as with all of the fire signs, its hallmark is passion and intensity. Sagittarius comes at the point of revolution of the zodiac when we are beginning to get a bigger picture of our place on this planet. Sagittarius is the sign related to the philosophical ideals upon which a society is run. What is it that the collective values? What is most important?

Oh holy night!

(I am writing on the Winter Solstice)

Finally our true values are set to come springing up from the ground of our potential. Finally the harvest is about what we truly are.

Venus is Isis. In Greek mythology, her essence was vastly restricted as she became associated mostly with sensual and erotic love. In Egyptian times, Isis was central to the soul’s alignment with destiny.

She pierces through all denial and illuminates our soul’s longing…She holds the vision of who we are and who we are meant to be and calls us toward our higher self. In her, we find the courage to walk our soul’s path…In Western astrology, Venus represents the principle of values…In Shamanic Egyptian Astrology, Isis challenges us to align our actions with our values…How willing are we to change–to open to a shamanic death–in order to receive love? ∞ Linda Star Wolf and Ruby Falconer

We are the seeds we have planted. The real work to be done? Hear our holy longing and comply with its call. We must render our Souls to destiny. Only once we have given ourselves over to it can we even begin to know what unions to form, which relationships to stoke and which to submit to the executioner's chamber.

But I will warn you: Not all is as it appears.

The relationships that can most soundly bring through your holy desire may not be the ones that look like S'mores roasting over a hot fire. In fact, I can almost guarantee you they will be the relationships that challenge everything you ever considered knowing about who you are and what you are made of.

Don't be so quick to judge. Apply a bit of patience. Have a little faith in the mystery. Allow!

Just exactly how do you think Isis pierces through the denial in the first place? With niceties? Maybe. But niceties appear, to one who is terrified of goodness, as the grand monster Apep, terrifying and thrilling to behold, situated in the deep bowels of an unrestrained and foggy darkness.

Will you enter?

To realize your destiny, perhaps you must, though you can continue praying that all you desire will be as easy to claim as a soft white fleece on a cold winter morning.

And what is your destiny this Full Moon?

The North Node is in Cancer also, retrograde, as if inviting us to return to something. Or maybe it is calling us to a grand revival.

∞ renewed attention to or interest in something

∞ a new presentation or publication of something old

∞ an often highly emotional evangelistic meeting or series of meetings

∞ restoration of force, validity, or effect (as to a contract)

Excerpts from Merriam-Webster

What exactly is the great monster Apep hiding in the misty depths? Could it be that all you once hungered for, and which now appears as the mangled remnants of your fear can, with the right turn of the wheel, might just become destiny after all?

What have you given up on? What are you certain is out of reach even though you contort yourself like a madwoman trying to force it to appear? What inspires your manipulations and your grand and crazy stands for control?

Let Destiny's Agent have a moment with these secret, malnourished, much maligned longings. See if they can be cleansed, made whole, rendered holy, at last.

Destiny is associated with Shai in the Egyptian pantheon.

The seed of the individual’s destiny is in the birth brick of Meskhenet. Shai has transformed this stone into the symbol of the wheel; he is actively and consciously working with the results of his actions from the past. Having penetrated the mystery of transmutation he now uses this knowledge to transform human consciousness…Shai is indeed the universe in microcosm and called by the Egyptians the god of luck, or destiny.∞ Athon Veggi and Alison Davidson

After all, Venus and Ceres are both in the sign of Scorpio and Scorpio is all about the holy longing. The harvest is ripe to hold, at long last, the buried treasure disguised as your demise.

The price of its freedom? Your projections and your need to get back to the baseline of your misery. Are you yet willing to take on the high wire of hope without a net? Without your precious PLAN B always stalking what you say is your most valuable investment?

In Shamanic Egyptian Astrology, Scorpio is Bast or Bastet. She is about celebration and pleasure.

Bastet is a combination of the sun and moon. She is the magnetic attraction that draws opposites together to create a new 'child,' a new dimension of awareness. It is Bastet who protects marriages of a physical and magical nature. ∞ Athon Veggi and Alison Davidson

Bast is the sensuous symbol or our holy desire. Symbolized by the cat, her feline nature entices and beckons us to give expression to our desire nature and to go in search of our holy longing...

...Bast could be both fierce and nurturing... In Western astrology, Bast is associated with the water sign Scorpio. Scorpio is the most fiery of the water signs, passionate and intense. Scorpio follows upon the sign of relationships, Libra. While Libra represents the desire to relate, Scorpio is the result of relationship. Scorpio is, therefore, associated with the union of two people--through sex, marriage, and partnership. Scorpio governs contracts of all kind from marriage to business contracts. When two people come together and experience union with each other, whether than is a physical union or the merging together of talents and abilities, a third thing is created. The ecstasy and passion of Scorpio is the catalyst for its expression...

...The ruler of Scorpio in Western astrology is Pluto, the lord of the underworld. In Shamanic Egyptian Astrology, Pluto is Osiris, the god of death, but also the god of regeneration and rebirth...

...Bast promises us rebirth into another form. Her sensual, seductive nature awakens within us our longing. She lures us toward death--encouraging us to let go and release our resistance, our fears, and our reluctance--anything we are holding on to that prevents us from entering the portal between the worlds. Our reward is ecstasy, union with the Divine, and birth into a new way of being. ∞ Linda Star Wolf and Ruby Falconer

Dearest Bastet, dripping with desire, awaken in us what we most long to hold and in so doing erase all we have built to stand against it and all we have ever projected as the inescapable labyrinth of our deprivation. Destroy our ability to sit in the filthy stench of our self righteousness confirming a world in which we do not want to live.

Crash, bang, boom!

A trine represents,

…speed–speed due to lack of friction. All obstacles or deterrents are removed so life flows quickly upstream or down the drain. The trine is not concerned with the direction of its movement as long as it is moving. If you have been striving for a result against a restricting force, suddenly that force is removed and you fly forward. ∞ Predictive Astrology: The Eagle and the Lark, Bernadette Brady

In Shamanic Egyptian Astrology, Neptune is Nephthys, whom Osiris mistook for his wife. She is the dark power of dissolution and the mother of Chiron/Anubis, the KEY.

Sometimes called the “Veiled Isis,” Nephthys is the great High Priestess of Shamanic Egyptian Astrology. Her realm is the shadow world of hidden mysteries…

…Neptune represents slow, gradual change. This is change that happens over a long period of time–much as a river gradually carves out a canyon–and is immutable and irreversible. Neptune represents the sort of change that the caterpillar experiences when it spins its cocoon and dissolves away so as to be reformed as a butterfly…

…In Shamanic Egyptian Astrology, Nephthys is the keeper of the mystery of our soul’s path. It is she who beckons us into the shadows; it is she who challenges us to trust the process of shamanic death and rebirth; it is she who holds the key to what it is that we can ultimately be…To work with her magic, we must agree to trust her–which means trusting the unseen world. ∞ Linda Star Wolf and Ruby Falconer

What better to slay Apep (the karma obscuring out destiny desires) than a hot injection of TRUE MAGIC?

Well, I can't really think of anything. Can you?

Next up...

Neptune is sitting in the sign of Pisces along with our warrior spirit (Mars) conjunct Chiron.

Oh how I love a good challenge. In the middle of all this hope rests our warrior wed to our pain. But don't you dare give up now. Be a dauntless dreamer in this the darkest hour of the darkest day. He's been in this pain position for a long time whether we have been able to acknowledge it or not. And now, at long last, our pain and our projected power are sitting in the sign of unconditional Divine Love.

In Shamanic Egyptian Astrology, Pisces is Sothis.

Sothis is the home of the great goddess Isis and is a place of great love, wisdom, and compassion. Isis, in her manifestation as Sothis, is the bodhisattva who returns to Earth again and again in order to share her wisdom gained through many lifetimes.

The energy that comes from Sothis is incredibly pure and loving; it is the love of the great Divine Mother herself…

…The higher expression of the sign of Pisces, and the pure manifestation of the beautiful goddess Sothis, is that of compassionate detachment. Sothis does not do anything to change the course of events in our lives. All she does is love us. By the pure force of love, all is changed. When we know we are held and loved by the Divine Feminine–no matter who we are, not matter what we have done–everything changes. We feel supported, sustained, and nurtured by that love and can find our own strength to change the course of our lives.

Inherent in the symbolism of Sothis is the understanding that we must all retreat periodically into our own underworld…

…That is the loving and compassionate message of Sothis and her counterpart, Isis. ‘Descend,’ she tells us, ‘descend willingly over and over again.’ Allow some aspect of ourselves to die. Through that process, we become transformed into the new version of ourselves that lies waiting to be born. Let go of fear and resistance; move into the underworld over and over again for only here can we be united with our loving opposite. Here we find that part of ourselves…
∞ Linda Star Wolf and Ruby Falconer

I just see Sothis rocking our brokenness and wiping away our attempts to create safety by cruelty and force.

We can stop this now!

You come home late and you come home early

You come on big when you're feeling small

You come home straight and you come home curly

Sometimes you don't come home at all

So what in the world's come over you

And what in heaven's name have you done

You've broken the speed of the sound of loneliness

You're out there running just to be on the run

Well I got a heart that burns with a fever

And I got a worried and a jealous mind

How can a love that'll last forever

Get left so far behind

So what in the world's come over you

And what in heaven's name have you done

You've broken the speed of the sound of loneliness

You're out there running just to be on the run

It's a mighty mean and a dreadful sorrow

It's crossed the evil line today

Well, how can you ask about tomorrow

We ain't got one word to say

So what in the world's come over you

And what in heaven's name have you done

You've broken the speed of the sound of loneliness

You're out there running just to be on the run

You're out there running just to be on the run

You're out there running just to be on the run

You're out there running just to be on the run

∞ John Prine

Dearest Sothis, rock us in your love until we can come home to you, to ourselves, to each other. Sing us lullabies of your Divine Love until we believe enough in the LOVE we desire to create together that we can stop outrunning our own treasure. No more will we leave this love that could last forever so far behind. With your help, we can, we will, we must still ourselves long enough to pierce the depths together.

In resolute silence we will sit until you give us the words of power.

No more will we form our swords against one another. But rather we will wield them against every last thing that sets itself agains the manifestation of our creative union, against this, your will for us, our Divine Destiny of co-creative power.

For where two or three gather in my name, there am I with them. ∞ Matthew 18:20, the NIV

Have you ever considered why this dreadful age seeks to divide us one from another? If there is power in our gathering together, then the destruction of our power rests in our terminally unique special interests.

Get over it!

Let Uranus retrograde in Aries help you.

It will certainly have, by now, raised all the buried anger and deep six distress that keeps you from initiating something new.

Integrate it all and plant something new in the depths of this bereft hour.

In Shamanic Egyptian Astrology, Aries is Khepera.

Khepera holds tremendous importance in the language of Shamanic Egyptian Astrology, and nowhere is the spiral path of change more evident than in his influence in our astrological charts. He is the cosmic timekeeper who orchestrates the movements of the planets and controls their influence upon Earth and upon us. Khepera is portrayed as a scarab beetle, a powerful symbol in Ancient Egypt…Khepera was the god of the morning sun…Khepera was a symbol of resurrection and the new beginnings brought by the dawning of each day. His name is translated as ‘to become’ or ‘to develop.’ Held within his archetypal symbolism is the undiluted potential of all possibilities. ∞ Linda Star Wolf & Ruby Falconer

Here we have Aries (Khepera) bringing to bear an interesting concept!

During the passage through Amenta, the only light emitted is from Ra himself…In the fourth and fifth hours of the night, however, the darkness is so thick that even his light is unable to penetrate it…In the fifth hour the seed of life was planted in the mound of sand marked by a figure of Kheper-Ra, and when the Boat of Ra finally reached the end of this hour a star was seen, the star of the ‘living god, who journeyth, and journeyeth and passeth.’ ∞ Athon Veggi and Alison Davidson

And don't forget to recover your power from the heart of your pain. This is what turns Chiron's anguish into the Key that unlocks it all. Open the door to newness. We will cross its threshold together, holding hands and swearing allegiance to what we can do together.

And what threshold shall we cross?

The one that opens to the womb and our rebirth.

Vesta is sitting in the sign of Aquarius promising a future that can, if we enter it together, look radically different from the past.

Vesta is Meh-Urt. Her name means Mighty Fullness. She is the cosmic womb.

Meh-Urt represented the abundant and continuous source of matter available for impregnation.∞ Athon Veggi and Alison Davidson

Like the harvest principle, she can be be impregnated with anything. This is perhaps why, by Roman times, via the Vestal Virgins, women’s wombs and their connection to Meh-Urt became a matter of state welfare and their virginity a matter of state control. Very simply put, the Vestal Virgins’ wombs were consigned to birthing only the welfare of Rome and the state’s agenda.

In the meantime, know that I am standing at the threshold and I am dreaming of you.
